-## Commands
-Upon popular demand (Danny), I will share the commands I encounter on my journey.
-
-Central for one are the git commands, which I'm slowly getting used to. So the basic being:
-
-`git fetch`
-
-`git pull`
-
-`git push`
-
-`git push origin master`
-
-`git branch`
-
-`git checkout <branchname>`
-
-`git push origin <branchname>`
-
-There are tons of different lists of git commands on the Internet so I won't add all of them here.
-
-Other than that I'm currently figuring out some annoyances I still have, for example that the touchpad is responding badly for a few seconds after I login. The guides on the internet include commands to for example show all input devices `xinput list` or how to get a list of all installed packages `apt list --installed`. Once again, all the `sudo apt-get install <package>` I think are really cool, because they cut all the unnecessary crap from installing new software.
-
-The ones Danny listed in [here](https://gitlab.uzh.ch/lit/digizeit/merge_requests/13) are really useful, especially `ctrl+r`.

 Students will be expected to engage with various features of git/GitLab throughout the course, contributing to issue boards and adding content via merge requests, thereby gaining valuable competencies while still engaging with a syllabus that explores the impact of digitisation on history and the study thereof.
 
-## Assessment
+## Assessment(s)
 
-Because *History in a Digitized World* is not a regular MA Seminar, we will be requiring a mixture of assessments rather than a single Seminararbeit. 
+**Update as of 5 May 2020: as discussed in today's class, we will do full project pitches/presentations in an extended session on 26 May from 10-11 (2 projects) and 11.30-12.30 (2 projects). Please ask your final technical questions to Danny (and make final merge requests to the Digizeit master repository) by Friday 22 May at the latest. You can of course continue to work on your projects after 26 May with your 2nd semester reflection paper in mind, but the presentations of 26 May will be the 'time-stamp' on your work in this first semester. Looking forward greatly to seeing your work in this end-of-semester form!**
+
+**Update as of 15 April 2020: as discussed in virtual class last week, we shall have the final project pitch/feedback session on Tuesday 21 April. Thereafter (28 April, 5 May, 12 May), we shall have short 'stand-up meetings', where we each offer a 5-minute update on how our projects are progressing and what help we might need. We'll hope to have fuller project pitches/presentations on 19 and 26 May respectively (two in each session). These don't need to be fully finished projects, but rather an outline of what a more substantial project would be, if you had unlimited time/resources; and it should give us a hint of the kinds of issues you think you will reflect on in the second part of your assessment (point 2 below).**

+Because *History in a Digitized World* is not a regular MA Seminar, we will be requiring a mixture of assessments rather than a single Seminararbeit.
 
 1. During the “first” semester (FS20), we shall have an in-course assessment in the form of some kind of digital project (the exact form of this project will be discussed in Week 1’s session). This in-course project will be instead of individual oral presentations. We have scheduled April to be the “project month”, during which time you can develop an original idea, and receive feedback and guidance on how to realise this project in digital space.
-2. During the “second” semester (HS20), when you would normally submit a Seminararbeit, we will ask instead for a shorter written paper in which you reflect on your project with reference to relevant secondary literature. The deadline for this second assessment is Friday 4 December 2020.

The deadline for this second assessment is Friday 4 December 2020. **Update: ideally we would like you to write this directly into GitLab, at the very least in the form of a README.md file. This would be instead of you submitting a paper copy of your project reflections. See also [here](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/pages/) for potential ideas on how to publish your reflection piece as a webpage; with some technical help, you can also link your GitLab/GitHub repositories to sites such as [this](https://readthedocs.org) for nice presentational layout.**

 ## Feedback/interaction
 
-Part of what we're trying to do here is show you the utility of *git*, and get you aquainted with its features. For this reason, we will keep as much of our course content as possible inside the *digizeit* repository, and wherever possible, will use its features for announcements, managing assignments, and communication.

 For example, by providing technical support via the Issues page (#1), problems and solutions are tracked and visible to everyone in the course. Keeping issues public and searchable, you can benefit from, and everyone is saved from duplicating efforts and emails. Please only use email if you want to keep your correspondence private. Otherwise, everything you contribute here will be public; please assume that anyone can read what you are writing.

hopes-and-dreams/README.md

+# Hopes and dreams: what is this all about?
+
+Early in the course, we created biography pages by using *digizeit*'s [wiki](https://gitlab.uzh.ch/lit/digizeit/-/wikis/home). This served as a gentle introduction to digitial collaborative work, learning how to use Wikis, Markdown, and to add content through the browser.
+
+This folder, *Hopes and dreams*, similarly includes a contribution by each student/instructor in the class. In this case, however, the primary purpose was to learn about how to add and modify files via the *git* protocol from the local machine, rather than the GitLab website. Secondarily, it was a way to get to know one another a little better, and to provide a place for reflections if anybody wants to diarise throughout the course.
+
+With that in mind, everyone is free to update their documents with thoughts and feelings as they encounter them. But there is no expectation to make these documents into something particularly useful, as they were primarily an artefact of the technical exercise (which was passed with flying colours by all!)
